The saponification reaction between NaOH and ethyl acetate is an irreversible second order reaction. A conversion of 15% is achieved in a well stirred reactor with equal 0.1 molar initial concentrations of NaOH and ethyl acetate in 25 minutes. What time is required to achieve 30% conversion in the same reactor if the initial charge contains equal 0.2 molar initial concentrations of NaOH and ethyl acetate?
